Razorcake #128
Attempting to pigeonhole War Honey by genre classification simply sells short the depth and breadth of their gorgeous sound. The centerpiece of each of the three tracks on this one-sided 12″ EP is Gabrielle Dana’s haunting and beautiful voice. The ethereal music surrounding her voice elevates the feelings behind her vocals, making listening to War Honey an almost transcendent experience. This one sits with you a long time after the record has stopped spinning and leaves you wanting more.
